As the weather warms up, we are all looking forward to summer. The hot temperatures and frequent beach trips mean this is the perfect time to refresh your locks and go short. There is no one who loves a short style more than us! We are the best hairdresser in Perth to trust with your short summer cut. From bobs to pixie styles and curly cuts, we have you covered.

The Manicured Bob

This is a classic hairstyle that has seen major popularity this year. The bob is a unique cut that blends both modern style with classic sophistication. This haircut reflects a push against the norm, moving away from traditional long hairstyles and making a proud statement of individuality and strength. A crisp sharp cut can sit at the ears. A graduated or inverted bob showcases steeply cut layers up the back of the head. A long bob, or lob, sits around the shoulders. Our expert stylists can help find the best shape and style based

on your goals, and the natural shape of your face and texture of your hair. This is a haircut that can be tailored exactly to your desires.

The Cool Girl Pixie Cut

When you are tired of the length and seeking a dramatic change, the pixie cut is a classic winner. This close cropped style will see a fresh energised you after getting rid of those long locks. The pixie cut is defined by a short cut along the back and sides of the head. What you do with the top is up to you! Keeping the style short all over creates a fresh young feel and is easy to maintain.

You may prefer to keep some length, leaving the top to be styled as you desire for a variety of looks. The addition of sideswept fringe softens the look and creates a very rom

antic style, while blunted bangs give the cut a strong edge. The pixie cut has a wide range styles and can be worn casually or dressed up for special occasions.

The Curly Cut

If those curly locks are just seeming unmanageable, consider a trim and go short! Decreasing the length is a great way to lighten your hair and get that movement back. A short do is a terrific way to gain volume, making for a light bouncy do that is perfect for effortless summer style. From shoulder length lobs to mixed length crop cuts, a short curly cut adds a fresh look to your summer wardrobe. The addition of a fringe adds a whole extra dimension to this cut, creating a style that is all your own.

Our most recent photo shoot was one of the best yet! Using our organic hair colour, we featured eight mature ladies who shared with us their outgoing nature and eccentric approach to life. We aimed to celebrate their age by embracing the grey hair and smile lines as achievements of a life well lived. See for yourself the fantastic images obtained as these women dressed up and shared with us their gregarious attitudes towards life.

Our Maye Musk Inspired Shoot

All too often mainstream media creates a definition of beauty that is synonymous with young. We are looking to embrace a wide definition of beauty in all its forms, especially those that feature mature women – with silver hair and wrinkles achieved during a lifetime of experiences. Recently, Covergirl made the exciting announcement Maye Musk has been named as their newest brand ambassador. At age 69, she is an influential celebrity, with master’s degrees in both dietetics and nutritional science, and over five decades experience in modelling. She is a role model who is setting the stage for mature women to continue to occupy spaces as beauty icons. Other women we admire include Iris Apfel, now 96 years old and a continuing fashion icon, as well as Diane Keaton, a well-known actress with an enviable natural style.

Our mature models drew inspiration from these iconic women and really brought it forward in front of the camera. These women are not hiding in large clothes that obscure their figures, but rather are continuing to put their playful fun loving attitudes at the front, embracing the wrinkles and making their grey hair a highlight of the image.

Organic Hair Colour for Mature Women

The women in this shoot all had haircuts here at Chilli Couture. Ranging in colours from blondes to silvers to auburns, all these women enjoyed the natural hair colour obtained with the premium products we are proud to use. The natural texture of their hair was taken into consideration by our stylists, helping to find and tailor a bespoke look that not only suits their hair but highlights their attitude and personality as well. The colouring agents used by Chilli Couture are of the highest quality. This is how we are able to achieve natural looking colour which retains that healthy shine. Sparkling whites, shimmering silvers and glistening charcoals are increasingly popular versions of hair colours that are traditionally associated with aging. This fashionable trend continues to glorify the changes that come with age, placing on a pedestal smile lines, crow’s feet, and grey hair – all signs of a life well lived.

Chilli Couture Style

This is easily one of the most energising photo shoots we have undertaken at Chilli Couture. The passion for life these women show in the images is inspirational. They are taking ownership of their age and flaunting it with gorgeous hairstyles and edgy outfits. This is a trend we have seen only rise in popularity during this past year, with no signs of stopping. Be sure to contact Chilli Couture today and let us help you take your style to the next level.
